Renowned Kano businessman and philanthropist, Alhaji Aminu Dantata, has passed away at the age of 94.
A family member confirmed that the elder statesman died late Friday night at a hospital in Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), after a brief illness.
Until his death, Dantata was regarded as one of Nigeria’s most prominent businessmen, industrialists, and philanthropists, with a legacy that spanned decades of investment, charitable work, and contributions to economic development.
The funeral arrangements were yet to be announced by his family as at press time on Saturday.
